Back in his room, Wang Chen immediately started cultivating.
Today's intense battle had caused his injuries to show signs of relapse. He had to use his True Inner Energy to soothe the pain in his meridians as soon as possible and heal them.
After cultivating for a while, he woke up the next morning.
Opening his eyes and exhaling a mouthful of turbid air, Wang Chen's lips curled into a smile. One night of cultivation could be said to be extremely rewarding.
Although his meridians were slightly stimulated by the five consecutive tough battles yesterday, after one night of cultivation, it was completely alleviated.
Not only that, Wang Chen also felt that his injuries seemed to have recovered a little.
Of course, more importantly, Wang Chen was shocked to find that his strength had unknowingly recovered to the state of a First Stage King, and was only one step away from a Second Stage King.
Indeed, it was just as Lin Zhan had told him before! Battle, battle was the best way to improve. Now, battle was also the best way for Wang Chen to recover.
The Divine Martial Bloodline was incomparably magical! Using battle to nurture battle was the best way to cultivate. Conversely, in a situation where it was difficult for Wang Chen to advance even an inch after recovering from his injuries, it was also the best way to recover.
Using external stimulation to stimulate the potential of the Divine Martial Bloodline, thereby achieving the effect of recovery. In this aspect, Wang Chen was doing very well.
Feeling the surging True Inner Energy in his body, Wang Chen's face was filled with confidence.
If this went on, he believed that it wouldn't be long before his strength would definitely have a breakthrough again! Wanting to recover was just around the corner! In fact, it wouldn't take much time!
Everything made Wang Chen feel extremely excited.
"I must pass the final round of the semi-finals!" Taking a deep breath, Wang Chen got up and stretched. Looking at the sunlight that seeped in through the window, he muttered to himself.
White Tiger Institution. Once he entered White Tiger Institution, there was hope for him to obtain the Ice Crystal Jade Lotus. Wang Chen had to succeed. He couldn't afford to lose.
On the last day, there were four matches. Thinking back to the battle situation of his team yesterday, Wang Chen had some ideas!
"Two more matches, two more matches and I'll be able to …" Thinking of his current results, Wang Chen suddenly felt enlightened.
It would not be a problem for him to take down a Stage Seven Martial King.
In this case, the chances of entering the next elimination round seemed to be very high. For a moment, Wang Chen's confidence doubled.
…
The Du Family's plaza was still bustling with noise and excitement.
When Wang Chen arrived, most of the people were already there.
Wang Chen's arrival naturally attracted many people's attention.
Yesterday's battle had almost made Wang Chen famous. Now, it wasn't just the people here who had heard of Wang Chen's name. There were even messages about him on the streets and alleys.
Everyone knew that there were a few Stage One Martial Kings rising up in the White Tiger Institution's selection this time.
Between the ages of 20 to 23, the age group that was least likely to enter White Tiger Institution, he stood out and won against a Stage Eight Martial King with the strength of a Stage One Martial King …
Just like that, Wang Chen became a minor celebrity.
This made Wang Chen not know whether to laugh or cry. He still remembered the way the Lan Family's servants looked at him when he left the house in the morning. It was a strange and unbelievable look.
For a moment, Wang Chen seemed to have returned to the days when he was in Xingchen School, back to the days in Sin City.
Back then, didn't he constantly make people's jaws drop, continuously create miracles, and finally walk step by step to the position he was today?
What he could do back then, Wang Chen firmly believed that he could still do it now.
As the time arrived, the last four rounds of the challenge finally began.
Battle after battle continued to unfold. The entire Du Family's square was bustling with noise and excitement. As the last day of the challenge began, the atmosphere was pushed to the climax.
Everyone brought out their last trump card and used all their strength to strive for victory! It could be said that today's battle was much more intense than yesterday's.
Finally, it was Wang Chen's turn. This time, his opponent was a Stage Nine Martial King. Furthermore, it was a Stage Nine Martial King who had almost reached the peak of the Stage Nine.
At the age of 22, reaching the peak of the Stage Nine Martial King could barely be considered as a first-rate Martial King in the Central Continent.
One must know that this time, there was an Emperor Martial King participating in this level of competition at the Du Family's plaza in Sunset City! And there were at least 80 Stage Nine Martial Kings, if not 100!
Looking at the entire Barbarian Province, there were at least 50 Emperor Martial Kings participating in the White Tiger Institution's selection!
Of course, the main reason for this was that those who could become Imperial Martial Artists in their twenties or early twenties did not lack powerful martial techniques or techniques. Each of them was a target that their clans would focus on nurturing.
Hence, they were not very enthusiastic about the White Tiger Institution. To them, staying in their families and receiving all the resources to nurture them was perhaps a better choice.
It was precisely because of this that it was rare to see Emperor Martial Kings at the age of 20 to 23 participating in this competition.
And these people who participated in the White Tiger Institution's selection were usually members of small families or members of some families who had not received the focus of nurturing! They had entered the White Tiger Institution for no other reason than to obtain powerful cultivation methods and martial skills. Or perhaps they hoped to graduate from the White Tiger Institution successfully and enter the core circle of their families.
The core disciples of the real big families with outstanding talent might not necessarily participate in the White Tiger Institution's selection. To them, there were more choices.
On the arena, looking at the peak of the Stage Nine Martial King, Wang Chen's brows were tightly knitted, as though he was thinking about something.
Below the stage, there was already an uproar that had long since become one.
"Stage Nine Martial King, can Yan Chen still win this time?"
"Difficult, I think he's going to fail!"
"Yeah, a Stage Nine Martial King, and he's even reached the peak!"
"In this group, he's the strongest!"
Looking at Wang Chen, the crowd discussed animatedly. Except, this time, there was still no one who was optimistic about Wang Chen's chances.
On the arena, Wang Chen narrowed his eyes as he looked at the peak of the Stage Nine Martial King.
As the young man announced the start of the competition, Wang Chen unexpectedly called for a stop.
Just as the Stage Nine Martial King was about to make his move, Wang Chen suddenly called for a stop. This scene caused the entire arena to fall into an uproar.
"What is he trying to do?" Everyone could not help but have this thought in their minds.
"I admit defeat in this battle!"
In the next moment, amidst the whispers of the crowd, Wang Chen made a decision that no one would have thought of.
He chose to forfeit this match.
Hua …
Following Wang Chen's decision, the entire arena was in an uproar.
Forfeiting a match was a relatively rare thing in this kind of challenge competition! After all, everyone was aiming for the White Tiger Academy, so they naturally wanted to perform better! He wanted to show his best side to the world. Forfeiting was not a glorious thing. It would easily leave a bad impression on the people of the White Tiger Academy. And it would affect their entry into the White Tiger Academy.
On the other hand, it did not matter if others forfeited. After all, the difference in strength was too great, there was no need to fight! Everyone would not care too much about it.
But, Wang Chen actually forfeited.
One must know, following yesterday's battle, after his reputation rose, Wang Chen had already become the focal point of everyone's attention. And this focal point, in the first match of the day, which was also the last match to watch, actually forfeited? How could anyone accept this!
"Coward!"
"That's right, he doesn't even dare to fight, hmph, looks like he's only so-so!"
"To think that I specially came to watch him fight, boring!"
For a moment, there was an uproar below the arena, and the clamor became one. Words of dissatisfaction towards Wang Chen flew everywhere.
"Smart!"
"That's right, his choice is very wise!"
"Hmph, what do those boorish fellows know? This kind of opponent is the most terrifying! Compared to the White Tiger Academy, what does forfeiting count as? "
"Yan Chen? Very good, I'll remember it! "
On the other hand, many intelligent people in the arena also understood Wang Chen's intentions at the first moment, and could not help but sigh in admiration. They had a higher opinion of Wang Chen.
Among them, there were those from the White Tiger Academy who were paying attention to Wang Chen! When they saw Wang Chen make this decision, they all revealed a trace of a smile at the same time!
Wang Chen's decision did not disappoint them. Yesterday, they were still worried that Wang Chen would be stubborn and fight to the death with this strongest person. At that time, if the gains did not make up for the losses, and he was seriously injured, unable to participate in the following matches, that would be a huge loss.
Choosing to forfeit was undoubtedly the wisest decision at this time!
Currently, in Wang Chen's group, only Wang Chen and this peak Stage Nine King martial artist had obtained complete victories.
At the same time, there was also a slightly weaker Stage Nine King martial artist who had lost a match. He had lost to a peak Stage Nine King martial artist.
The one who had lost two matches was a Stage Eight King martial artist!
In this way, even if Wang Chen forfeited this match, he would only lose one match and be ranked second.
And in the next match, as long as he defeated a Stage Seven King martial artist, Wang Chen would still have the advantage! As for the injured Stage Eight King martial artist, he obviously could not fight anymore. Victory could be determined without a fight.
In this way, Wang Chen would be able to accumulate seven victories!
His last opponent was another Stage Nine King martial artist!
This match was dispensable. It no longer mattered. As long as Wang Chen could obtain seven victories out of nine matches, he could at least maintain third place! Even if the Stage Eight King martial artist who lost to Wang Chen yesterday exerted his strength and defeated the slightly weaker Stage Nine King martial artist in the next match, the number of victories he could accumulate in the end could only be tied with Wang Chen!
However, he lost the battle with Wang Chen. Hence, Wang Chen still had to suppress him. The one to advance was still Wang Chen!
In short, as long as he defeated the Stage Seven King martial artist, Wang Chen could ensure that he would advance. That was enough. Hence, there was no need for him to waste his energy here. Once he was injured, the gains did not make up for the losses!
